But what about Thant then?, he was actually buffed in HotA due to Mysticism being much better. But Thant is still somehow fair?
He does'nt even require Earth Magic, unlike Jeddite and Alamar and can actually bring back his level 7 units.
Animate Dead and Resurrection could at least work in the same way.
The problem with Animate Dead though, is that it can sometimes be extremely hard to learn and it will only get harder when Factory finally gets here.

Thant is a great hero, but Galthran again pulls ahead by having unmatched early game due the skeleton advantage. Thant can be better hero in later stages of the game. I'm not sure if Thant is actually buffed in Hota thou. Yes, Mysticism in it's current state is better especially on Thant-like hero, but one of the reasons Thant was so good back in the day was because you could guarantee having animate dead by choosing him instead of having to rely on luck. Now you can get is by simply rerolling for the spell.
Btw, I'm currently having a project of ranking all heroes on my computer, but it's not ready yet. When it gets done, I likely "release" it on HC. Currently, Necropolis heroes are listed as it follows: (no Ranloo btw)
1. Galthran
2. Thant
3. Aislinn
4. Vidomina
5. Isra
6. Clavius
7. Nagash
8. Chanra
9. Septienna
10. Tamika
11. Sandro
12. Vokial
13. Moandor
14. Straker
15. Xi
16. Nimbus

Not everyone plays with spell research.
I don't like that feature, it only buffs Tower and nerfs Stronghold and Fortress and I'm not interested in that.
A Mage Guild 4 would have been great for Fortress, especially since Witches are so magic oriented.
Your Necro hero rating sounds about right and I would be interested in seeing your "project" later.
Tamika seems a bit low, I would move her up around Clavius, she gets some pretty insane Dread Knights.
Nagash can go down a bit, Intelligence is not that great in HotA.

Yeah I kinda miss him too.
Ranloo is just Vokial 2, except Vokial 2 comes with a ballista, unlike Vokial 1.
Men, you can bring Galthran back in Hota
If you are interested i tell you how.
I like necro but only with him. The most important thing is that he gives +1 speed to skellies and you dont need to carry a creature with 4 speed.
He's not that overpowered.
Tower is overpowered in hota

Hmm are you sure? Galthran gives the biggest bonus of all creature specialists + Necromancy + Skeleton Transformer + starting with 3 stacks of skels...
I definitely agree Tower is OP in HotA.

There is no doubt that Isra is the best.
Besides her, I would choose Tamika or Clavius. They both have the same very good skills. Besides, you can never say no to extra 350 gold.
Galthran is good, but I've never learned to use his specialty... :/

Hmm Galthran? The majority keep him strong. I found him funny. Logistics, etc are funny, thus easier and stronger. Ok we look together:
1.) Boots
2.) Secondary Skills
3.) Surely WoG
4.) Heroes
The Barbarians can't learn Water and a very difficult to get a Scholar. Only scholar, heroes, mapmaker and WoG.
Remember opinions.
I'm a mapmaker, I agree with you, but I don't choose him, I play randomly.

I'm exploring the Necro Land, and I've found the same opinion.. I agreed with him.. A previous discussion has been a mystery..
If you want to know more..
https://homm-utopia.com/en/towns/necropolis/
How? We were talking about Teleport, Thant, etc He should be acquainted about RoE.. Excellent!
Hmm Galthran is a very easy and fun hero..
I remember that hard RoE campaign, when map was offered Water or Fire.. I tried Fire, and then berserk against Archangels.. But excellent opinion, for example.. Don't only Earth or one hero..

RoE? I've seen 1M skeletons by AI, but AI is taken to garrison, amen! What about me? I was 600-700k skeletons.. When I waited for AIs grew legion again.. So Fear spell plus hero per level.. If AIs are 70lvl, so a few of creature grows legion in only one battle from dwelling, for example.. If you've RoE without updated, you give over 40lvl, etc in your mapmaker, you realize then.. Remember you give a Earth, Water.. I keep strongest RoE player.. SoD? You can check on Elite map.. Slow growth, thus fixed AI bonus.. But Fear spell is existence to human player.. Later on I test what AlexSpl said.. Fear spell is the most OP in HoMM3.. Other suck.. I've played Fear, but not worked my computer.. Version? Interesting.. So 1 skeletons or RoE.. I don't know can RoE code something to move SoD, etc and AI grows +8lvl, etc Because I'm not pro at.. HotA knows.. When can read RoE.. Ok

Ok newbie!
When 46% voted for Galthran now..
I'm telling about Galthran, not Moandor, etc Because you voted Galthran. Ok when 3DO maps you get to about 27 level means +7 att and +6 def plus +1 speed, it does a total 12 att and 10 def plus 1 speed, and then Galthran's Primary skills will destroy a smaller stats, thus higher attack does maximum 400% damage and if defense is higher than attack, it means -30% damage.. Not Necromancy specialities can't help you, when maximum 4000 neutral monsters, you get more 200 skeletons than Galthran, but Galthran's Primary skills and normal 3DO maps you can't find 4000. Galthran is winner.
